Final Week 7: United In Prayer and Fasting to End Abortion In New Mexico

Albuquerque, NM- As we conclude this united prayer and fasting campaign to end abortion in New Mexico, trusting the words of Jesus (Matthew 17:14-21) that some deeply entrenched demonic strongholds can only be cast out, “except by prayer and fasting.” Over the past 7 weeks we have seen droughts broken, the desire to break generational curses from a member of Curtis Boyd’s family, confirmation of an investigation by the New Mexico Medical Board into the abortion related death of a local woman at the hands of late term abortionist Curtis Boyd, this effort has crossed the border from New Mexico into Texas the birthplace of abortion and the birthplace of Boyd’s baby killing empire. We believe strongholds are being broken by the Lord as we have prayed and fasted together in this united effort!

One thing that is sorely lacking in New Mexico as we move forward is the need for bold pro-life leadership in state government. This week we stood in solidarity with Congressman Steve Pearce as the pro-life candidate for Governor which represents a positive shift that even local media recognizes as significant. As we wrap up this initial prayer and fasting effort we want to make sure that what has been cast out as a result of these efforts is not replaced with that which is more evil as is described in Matthew 12. We must replace the evil with good righteous leaders and continue to keep pro-life efforts united with the goal of ending all abortions in New Mexico ensuring that every pre-born child is valued and protected.

Please join with us in this last week of prayer and fasting asking the Lord to appoint pro-life leaders to fill the void in state leadership as we approach the upcoming election later this year.

This week’s final scripture reading is from, Matthew 12:43-45

“This evil nation is like a man possessed by a demon. For if the demon leaves, it goes into the deserts for a while, seeking rest but finding none. Then it says, ‘I will return to the man I came from.’ So it returns and finds the man’s heart clean but empty! Then the demon finds seven other spirits more evil than itself, and all enter the man and live in him. And so he is worse off than before.”

Prayer Points:

An end to all abortion in New Mexico.
For strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico to be broken.
For the closure of the last 5 abortion facilities in the state.
For the women considering an abortion.
For the conversion of all abortion facility workers.
For the women who’ve participated in a previous abortion and need healing.
For the New Mexico Medical Board’s investigation into Curtis Boyd’s involvement in the late term abortion death of an Albuquerque woman last year.
For the New Mexico Nursing Board investigation into illegal abortions performed by Planned Parenthood abortionist Vivianne Clark.
For the upcoming 2018 New Mexico election.

Note: Fasting can be done in many ways.

Some may choose to fast from sunrise to sunset.
Others may choose to fast from 6:00am-3:00pm as a partial fast.
For others, a fast might be one full meal for the day, as well as two smaller meals that together are not equal to a full meal.

Abortion Free New Mexico has been asked to join in weekly prayer and fasting on Wednesday for an end to abortion in New Mexico until March 28th. We invite those in the body of Christ who are able to join us in this spiritual discipline to break the stronghold and spirit of death that surrounds us.

This is a united effort between both Non-Catholic and Catholic Christians who are committed to ending abortion in New Mexico. For more information during the season of Lent Catholics are encouraged to visit this website.

Week 6: United In Prayer and Fasting to End Abortion In New Mexico

Albuquerque, NM- Sometimes it seems that evil continues to triumph especially in such a corrupt state like New Mexico. However, God is moving across our borders, Tara was encouraged this past week, while in Texas, by the next generation of young people who are passionately and boldly rising up to end abortion and ensure that every pre-born child is valued and protected.

Last week our prayer and fasting campaign extended from New Mexico into Texas, the epicenter of legalized child killing in America and of Curtis Boyd’s child killing empire! Tara was in Dallas, Texas with Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, helping to train the next generation to take ownership and lead the charge to end abortion in America- in the very city that this injustice began.

This could not be more timely, as pressure mounts against Curtis Boyd not only in New Mexico but last week also in Dallas, Texas, the birthplace of legalized abortion. The Dallas federal court case known as Roe v. Wade brought us abortion on demand. Dallas is also home to Curtis Boyd’s other abortion mill that he opened and operated illegally PRIOR to the 1973 Supreme court ruling!

(Tara Shaver in Dallas with the Survivors: Dallas Mini Camp 2018)

Thank you for standing with us for the babies and for seeking the Lord through prayer and fasting as we ask Him to break the strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico. We know from Psalm 37 that there is no future for the wicked and we look forward to the day when there is no future for Curtis Boyd nor any abortionist in our state.

This week’s scripture reading is from, Psalm 37:7

“Wait patiently for the LORD! Wait confidently for him! Do not fret over the apparent success of a sinner, a man who carries out wicked schemes!”

Let us continue to faithfully pray and fast to fight this battle spiritually to end all abortions in New Mexico, we are trusting and believing that the Lord is already using this united effort to accomplish His will for our state.

Week 4: United In Prayer and Fasting to End Abortion In New Mexico

Albuquerque, NM- Prayer and fasting is powerful, through this spiritual struggle, we are confident that the Lord is breaking the strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico. We may not know exactly how He will respond according to His will through our prayers, but we can be sure that He wants babies lives to be spared even more than we do.

This week, we were encouraged when we received a phone call, out of the blue, by a relative of Curtis Boyd! Not a coincidence at all to receive this call during the third week of prayer and fasting to specifically end abortion in our state where Curtis Boyd has capitalized on the lack of any common sense abortion regulations and has single handedly transformed New Mexico into the Late-Term Abortion Capital of America. This relative called us with an apologetic heart for what Curtis Boyd has brought to our state and had been led by the Lord, while she has also been praying and fasting, to reach out to us! God is so good, His timing and plans are perfect. This week we’d ask that you pray for this relative as she joins us in our united effort of prayer and fasting as she seeks the Lord to break the generational curse that Curtis Boyd’s legacy of death has brought upon her family.

Join us as we continue to seek the Lord through prayer and fasting asking Him to break the strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico. We are stronger together in this battle for life!

This week’s scripture reading is from, 2 Corinthians 10:3-4

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.

Over the next three weeks please join us as we continue to faithfully pray and fast to fight this battle spiritually to end all abortions in New Mexico, we are trusting and believing that the Lord is already using this united effort to accomplish His will for our state.

Each Wednesday we will send you a passage of scripture to pray and meditate on.

Prayer Points:

An end to all abortion in New Mexico.
For strongholds that are keeping abortion in New Mexico to be broken.
For the closure of the last 5 abortion facilities in the state.
For the women considering an abortion.
For the conversion of all abortion facility workers.
For the women who’ve participated in a previous abortion and need healing.
For the upcoming 2018 New Mexico election.
NEW PRAYER POINT: For almost a year now Planned Parenthood has been severely limited in their ability to provide abortions due, in part, to a nursing board complaint filed by Tara Shaver back in 2016. The New Mexico Nursing Board ruling is supposed to be issued this Spring.

Note: Fasting can be done in many ways.

Some may choose to fast from sunrise to sunset.
Others may choose to fast from 6:00am-3:00pm as a partial fast.
